Agnesa Búřilová, née Wlachovská, (born 4 January 1943)[2] is a former pair skater who competed for Czechoslovakia.

Agnesa Wlachovská began skating in 1952.[3] After switching from singles to pairs, she had some bad falls — one resulted in a concussion that forced her to repeat a school year.[3] With partner Peter Bartosiewicz, she finished ninth at the 1964 Winter Olympics.[4] She became a coach after retiring from competition, working with 1984 Olympic bronze medalist Jozef Sabovčík.[5]

Though born in Rožňava, Búřilová has lived most of her life in Bratislava.[3] She has two sons, Peter Búřil and hockey player Vladimír Búřil (born in 1969).[3][6] She is the great-aunt of Canadian ice dancer Andrew Poje.[7]
